  • I do the same thing. When I do it it’s because I am trying to avoid something stressful or just feeling generally anxious. Try to identify how you are feeling right before you choose to eat something that you shouldn’t. If you can , choose to do something else that will help change your mood, something that you really…
  • I am not a medical professional. Depending on what you mean by way low, under eating could be problem. I wouldn’t worry about it in the short term (a few days to a week). Most of us under eat from time to time. If it continues you will be forcing your body to use your lean body mass for fuel. That is a recipe for long term…
  • I am not a medical professional but I have heard Dr Phinney say in a video that you can smell ketones in a person with uncontrolled diabetes. I would see your doctor and get some blood work done
  • I have used it and liked it. I made cheese biscuits, muffins and pancakes. The taste is fine. The texture is a little more coarse and dry compared to regular flour. I don’t test my blood sugar.
  • OP I wouldn’t worry about it for now. Is it hot where you live? We are having a heat wave and lots of my friends have said that they don’t feet like eating. I find that when just starting out on Keto or when getting back to it my appetite is low for a while. If you have a significant amount of weight to lose I don’t think…
  • I am sorry that you are struggling. The food that you say that you eat every day doesn’t look like it adds up to anywhere near 1200 calories and yet you say that you are not losing any weight. You also mention that a few years ago you were eating 500 calories a day and weighed 95 pounds. It sounds like you have a…
  • You could make flax seed muffins in advance and eat them with butter. I like cloud bread as hamburger buns. They are pretty delicate so you would have to pack them in a sturdy container but they will keep well in a cooler. I like the idea of still being able to eat what everyone else is eating just a modified version so…
  • I enjoy meat and eggs but any WOE can become boring if we eat the same foods daily. Lately I have found new foods/recipes to vary my diet. One of my favourites is Zeroodle which is a soybean pasta with 21 grams of protein and 5 net carbs. It is really good. I can get tired of salads as well so lately I have been eating…
  • When i decrease portion size i increase variety and that keeps me satisfied. For example, dinner might be a small soup, baked fish with a sauce, at least four different viggies (some cooked, some raw, some pickled) and a few cubes of a good cheese.
  • I would consider buying one bra that fits you well now and just wash it everyday. I can’t afford to buy multiple bras while losing either.
  • I would join the low carb group on MFP and read about sodium and potassium requirements. There is no need to be in pain with any eating plan.
  • I am new to the community section as well. I can't even tell you how to find the low carb group, but I did. You have to ask permission to join but don't let that stop you. Good luck
  • You might have more luck in the low carb group. There is lots of great info there.
